Who Is It For?

How to Use This Product

  • Wet the Hair: Thoroughly wet your hair with warm water.
  • Apply Shampoo: Apply a small amount of shampoo to the scalp (roughly the size of a two-euro piece for short hair, adjusting for longer or thicker hair).
  • Massage: Use your fingertips to massage the product thoroughly into the scalp.
  • Leave On: Leave the lather on the scalp for a few minutes.
  • Rinse & Lift Scales: Remove as much lather as possible with your hands first—this step is important as it helps carry away loosened scales—then rinse thoroughly under running water.
  • Frequency: Use once or twice weekly until the condition improves, or as directed by your healthcare professional. (For infant cradle cap, apply a small amount to produce a lather, wash off with warm water, and gently pat dry).

Active Ingredients


  • Distilled Coal Tar (1.0% w/w): Relieves itching and slows down excessive skin cell production.
  • Salicylic Acid (0.5% w/w): Acts as a keratolytic agent to loosen and shed scaly, dead skin.
